Cobb Cycling: Women CAN be Aggressive and Comfortable

303’s Nicole Odell attended the Cobb Cycling Women’s event yesterday, and reports:
The goal of the event was to address women’s issue with fit, trying to change a culture of being embarrassed to talk about saddle comfort issues.
It started with a little primer on how making aerodynamic gains by a more aggressive fit changes the pressure points.
Pro triathlete and excellent cyclist Yvonne Van Vlerken was there to share her story of how saddle issues led to surgery for a pretty bad cyst, and how after that she switched to a Cobb saddle and has had no issues since.
The presentation was followed by a question and answer session.
